This is called the 3rd loop. rsc = reverse single crochet (crab stitch) st/sts = stitch/stitches sp/sps = space/spaces **Gauge:** 8 hdc sts in 2" **Measurements:** 7" tall, by 4 1/2" wide at widest point **Additional Notes:** -ch 1 at beginning of round does not count as a stitch. -This wrist warmer should fit the average woman's hand.

Your left and right hand glove pattern is the same. -If you don't want the tie at the top of the fingerless mitt, skip to round 4 after you work the beginning chain.
